So it's hard for me to put in perspective what they are truly going through. But then something I've been kind of tinkering with a little bit is everybody's reality is their reality. So my worst day is maybe not getting a meal at the end of the day. Okay, that might be my ultimate worst day.

Well, this kid over here's worst day is not having any friends, not having a roof to sleep under, and hadn't had a meal all day. Okay, well, that sounds a lot worse, but in my mind, this is as bad as it gets that I know of. This is as bad as it gets over here that they know of. Whose is worse from whose perspective? Like that's this hard thing I'm trying to find out.

Like the thing I always try and do is put myself in their shoes. I need to know how they're feeling. If they're trying to – like for a cop situation, put yourself in their shoes. They're walking up to a car. They have no idea. They don't know what's in the car. And they possibly could lose their life. But then somebody gets – the cop walks up and they throw an attitude. It's like, well, that cop –

might've lost his friend the week before. You've got to try and see their side of it. The trust part is the biggest thing. And I think that's one of the first modules we're going to start with is because in order for you to try and get better at life or take that next step or be optimistic, you've got to trust something. You've got to trust somebody.

You've got to trust yourself more than anything. And I think that's the biggest part with the kid's that we're going to be dealing with is they don't trust themselves. They don't trust their judgment. They don't trust this and that because they're struggling.

They go, like you say, online, and they're seeing this and that, and they're living in a house with five other siblings, and they're fighting for one meal a day. How are they going to trust a decision that it's like, okay, well – maybe I should be looking and trying to make these decisions over there. Well, what is, what are those decisions? Well, maybe I should just try and go get this job.

Oh, I don't trust myself enough to even know what to do for it. And I think the trust part is the biggest thing is I trust God with whatever, with whatever I'm doing. If they go South, it goes South because it was supposed to go South. It's, I trust that he's going to lead me on the path. And I, I mean, for me, That's everything.

I think that's the hard part that we're going to have to find is because We don't want to base it all off of faith because if they don't believe in that, then I still want to help them. I don't shun them because, oh, you don't believe in God. Like, no, that's you have your belief. But I want to get on the same side of the table with you.

I want to figure out how we can learn or get you to learn to trust or believe in whatever you want to believe in. And then we start building off of there. But if you don't have that foundation, it's going to be a tough road.
